I had a comfortably warm night. Following my standard breakfast of cereals I moved on. Today the trail is mostly on hard surface. In the morning I had a blue sky. Later clouds moved in with stronger wind and lower temperatures. I stopped for lunch in Idstein. Later in the afternoon a longer section followed the former Limes. Here I could see it's earthen ridge line and even the foundations of a Roman fort.

In Glashütten the E1 passes by a supermarket. Here I could get some drinks. As it became cooler and I had progressed further then planned I decided to spent the night at a hostel at Oberreifenbach. At restaurant Zum Roten Kreuz I left the trail in direction of Oberreifenbach to get to the hostel.

Nice view from E1 early in the morning
